Foreword of the founder Recently I received a personal letter from a well-known African professional hunter and leading conservationist. His personal email box was literally invaded by numerous brutal messages from anti-hunting extremists, criticizing his involvement in massacres on his continent.

FACE, the European Federation of Associations for hunting and conservation (7million members, 36 countries) is equally engaged in the international scene on a range of hunting-related issues. It upholds the principle of sustainable use and represents under this banner the hunters’ community

Today the social media and the global communication have affected us all for the good and the bad. What to do when Facebook, twitter, you tube and your own website are misused by anti-hunting extremists to instigate the ill-informed masses against hunting outfitters in particular and hunters in general ?

Both SCI and FACE coordinate their efforts through reciprocal associate memberships

My answer has been: do not fight this alone, join in with the others!! As life member of SCI and FACE, I would like to use this year’s foreword to convey this message to all hunters! Join and support an organization that protects your rights and heritage as a hunter. America’s Safari Club International (55.000members in 180 chapters) helps shape and promotes the image of the hunter to non-hunters through their words and their actions. They built up a whole organization to actively protect our freedom to hunt and to promote wildlife conservation. To that effect they became a respected voice in all global matters related to hunting and conservation.

Their work comes at great expense, both financially and in terms of volunteer leadership; their willingness to fight on all fronts to protect our hunting freedoms should be rightly supported by every hunter joining and contributing. Terrorism, which also uses the multimedia, tries to destabilize our trust in a peaceful future, but still we carry on and work for this ideal. Anti-hunting extremists try to put a wedge between us and the nature, but this should not distract us in our pledge to a perfect balance. …and to my friend PH in Africa: do not lose faith in your mission, as our representatives will do the job and we the hunters will take charge. Bruno van Marcke

Unique in Europe, Sabournac is a private hunting estate that has been organising mallard shoots over the last twenty years or so on the principles of the large “English style shoots”. This type of hunting surprises and appeals to many hunters, who like shooting a few hundred cartridges on high-ﬂying mallards. The birds ﬂy over surprisingly high, which challenges top-shooters to equip themselves with full-choke guns. The estate is open from September 1st to January 31st and may be reserved by a single group of 4 to 12 guns.

Welcome !

Today we live in a world where everything seems to happen faster and faster. Most of us buy stuff online, we find our hunting and fishing destinations online, we book our leisure trips online – and off course we read newspapers and books on a tablet. As an individual I’m no different, and to some extend, I appreciate the idea of saving time and trouble – and maybe being more efficient. As a manufacturer of quality branded products, I’m constantly told to spend more money advertising online, and less in printed Medias. Why on earth then advertise in an “old school”, hard cover book, as MSL? Because it works. We have been an advertising partner with MSL for quite some time, and it has definitely paid off. That’s why.

There’s nothing like owning, reading and looking in quality books, and that is what MSL is all about. We also like to think that our own brand, Laksen, is all about quality and style. Associating Laksen with MSL, has from the very beginning been a great match. I also think that it would be more than difficult to create the same atmosphere of quality, and ultimately achieve the same results in an online partnership. Happy reading!

Leica Sport Optics. For most demanding situations. Stalking in the mountains is perhaps the most demanding among all the different ways of hunting. To be successful harvesting a dreamed trophy reaching perfection is a must. After 18 years of professional hunting I have learnt that using the best optic equipment is what makes a difference achieving that dream. I always offer my clients a top hunting experience and never leave anything to chance, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I rely on Leica optics to reach that goal. The Magnus rifle scopes series together with the new Geovid HD-B 42 are the most precise, durable and reliable tool I can offer our hunters to ensure a successful and safe hunt.

The Roques-Rogery family, owners of this lovely estate since the 13th century, are delighted to welcome guests to their château with friendliness, all desired comforts and refined French cuisine. A superb hunting destination, in very pleasant surroundings, for outstanding trophies!

Wild Hunting Company >>

WildHunting in Turkey is owned and managed by the Ekenler Family and currently run by two brothers, Kürsat and Temir. They are both extremely keen young hunters and have hunted extensively throughout Turkey and abroad. The Ekenler family has been landowners in Tarsus, Cukurova area for more than 300 years. Hunting is a family tradition, proudly passed from father to son and finally to us. We have always had a passion for the wild; this has been supported by their father who took Temir and Kürsat with him to many hunts all over the world. With some of the world’s finest species on our doorstep, we have naturally concentrated on big game hunting. WildHunting offers a total of 6 species of big game, which are natively found only on Turkish hunting land, this makes the hunting unique! Our family has controlled the shooting in large areas of the Taurus Mountains for generations.

Cardrona Safaris >>

The stags are big, the scenery immense, the hospitality endless. The pristine game habitats of our family-owned operation in the South Island of New Zealand are renowned for producing the biggest stags in the country. It’s here Top 10’s are harvested. It’s here numerous world records have been set. It’s here you’ll reach the peaks of trophy hunting excellence. We ensure you can range far and wide to gain that once-in-a-lifetime trophy. To complement our privately owned hunting areas we have long term lease agreements with large local landholders. Besides world-class Red Stags we also offer quality hunts for Tahr, Chamois, Fallow, Elk, Goat, Ram, Boar, Whitetail, Sika, Sambar and Rusa. These big game species are complemented by small game (rabbit, hare, wallaby, possum) and, time permitting, wing shooting. We provide a home for one of the largest privately owned trophy red deer herds in the South Pacific. Thanks to decades of carefully focused game management the quality of a Cardrona Safaris red stag is unbeatable.

We therefore operate as a private family hunting estate, rather than an agent buying from different concessions all over the region. As a result, we have controlled, conserved and developed our areas in a manner that we believe to be unique in the whole country. This approach is key to our way of maintaining the highest standards in everything we do.

Our team will help guide you to your target with the ‘spot and stalk’ style of hunting. The approach is always one of exceeding expectations – be it with the service before and after, the hunting experience and the final trophy.

www.wildhuntingagency.com

www.cardronasafaris.com

We provide a world-class standard of service that’s at the same time laid back and friendly – everyone feels at home when hunting with our family. Quite simply, we offer New Zealand’s ultimate hunting experience. It’s one we look forward to sharing with you.

Fjelljakt >>

Medstugan Hunting Lodge is located in north-west Jämtland, Sweden, close to the Norwegian border. This incredible building dates from 1896 and was originally intended to provide accommodation for hunters from other continents and for the nobility. Medstugan Hunting Lodge is now the heart of Fjelljakt’s hunting activities. Fjelljakt has been operating for over a decade, with a focus is on moose and grouse. However, it’s not just the hunting and the area’s exceptional game population that makes Fjelljakt unique. The company also offers a gastronomic experience, with the company’s chef selecting regional delicacies to provide the guests with a completely local culinary experience when the hunting day has come to a close. The sommelier carefully chooses the wines to accompany the menu. Fjelljakt hunts grouse in a classic manner, using pointing bird dogs. Hunting takes place in the mountains, in enchantingly beautiful surroundings. Moose hunts are conducted in two ways, driven hunts and hunting with barking moose dogs. The latter is a one-on-one hunt, which is the traditional type of hunting in this area and typical for Scandinavia. The lands at Fjelljakt’s disposal cover 16,500 hectares of roadless country, so it is not unusual for hunters to be transported into this fantastic environment by helicopter, in order to get as far as possible into the terrain. However, the hunts that Fjelljakt offers are physically demanding and guests should be well prepared. Fjelljakt offers you a unique opportunity to hunt in one of the last areas of wilderness in Europe. If you want to experience a tough, challenging hunt in a traditional format, which is guaranteed to give you lasting memories, we would love you to be our guest! Welcome to our world.

Laurentian Wildlife >>

Home to the very best elk hunting in the world and some of the best red deer found anywhere. It is not only the trophy quality that places this hunting area as one of the best in the world but also the experience. The large team working here makes sure that your stay becomes a memorable experience. From one on one guiding to the luxury lodging and the gastronomic experience that our 2 local chefs produce, combining game meat and wild mushrooms from LWE and great local produce from the surrounding area paired with wine that has been chosen by a resident sommelier. All of this experience is second to none. The completely renovated lodge means LWE spares no expense to take the absolute best care of their guests. The rolling hills of dense forest interspersed with meadows and water makes the hunting area a magical place. The vast majority of the hunting is done by stalking but when the weather does not collaborate there are blinds strategically placed throughout the property. The hunting takes place starting from the middle of August and runs through the end of November. Hunters can expect to see a number of mature animals each day and will be guaranteed a number of opportunities at trophy animals. A trophy is a very personal concept unique to each hunter and at LWE there is a wide range in scores from solid representative animals scoring over 350 SCI to the next world record trophy of a lifetime.

Sney Rivier Lodge

Sney Rivier Lodge Namibia The Lodge Nestled in the heart of the Namibian bush, the Sney Rivier Lodge is a luxurious oasis that offers lavish accommodations, exceptional service, and the thrill of getting up close and personal with elusive wildlife. Built in 2009, it caters to those who seek an authentic experience and thrilling hunting adventures. The Sney Rivier Lodge lies at the foot of the Khoma highlands. The scenery is magnificent. Within sight of the main building and guest chalets is a watering hole where wild animals gather. The sense of place is enhanced by the architecture and interior design, as outdoors and indoors become one, strengthening the connection between hunter and nature. The Hunt The 30,000 hectare territory at your doorstep guarantees that you’ll experience a full spectrum of challenging hunting activities, from stalking over difficult terrain to hunting from a hide on one of the area’s countless rock hills. Our hunting guides and trackers make every effort to ensure your hunt is a success. They are experts on the local flora and fauna, and will fascinate you with intriguing facts about Namibia’s wildlife. Off-road vehicles are only used to take you to the starting point of your expedition or to pick up your trophies.

Namibia

The Parcours In 2011, a professional sporting clay parcours was added to the Sney Rivier Lodge. It encompasses two scenic rock hills and six remote-controlled clay target traps, offering a varied parcours program. Shooting stands in different positions create varying levels of difficulty, allowing experienced hunters to hone their skills. Experts are on hand to help novice shooters experience success. Whether you choose to work on your shooting skills, try out new shotguns, or stage a competition with friends, fire away! The parcours can be reserved at any time, and our staff is always happy to help you. Ammunition (cal. 12) is available for purchase. Blaser F3 shotguns are available for trial.

Daggaboy Hunting Safaris Namibia Owned and operated by Dawid Muller, a well-known Namibian professional hunter who has been active in the hunting industry for more than 30 years, Daggaboy Hunting Safaris offers dangerous as well as plains game hunting opportunities on their exclusively owned hunting areas in Namibia. Hunts for dangerous game are conducted on their exclusively operated conservancy in the Caprivi region, bordering the Mamili National Park in the south and the Mdumu National Park on the northern side. Hunts for plains game take place in an open (no high fences) area of over 40 000ha in the Khomas Hochland area in central Namibia. The plains game hunting area being only 60km south-west of Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, means that you will arrive at your hunting destination within an hourâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drive from the Hosea Kutako International Airport. Accommodation is offered in five luxurious double rooms in the hunterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wing next to the colonial-style farmhouse on Dawidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ranch, with en suite bathrooms and wireless access to Internet.

accommodation is in en suite bungalows or tents (clientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choice) with running hot and cold water.

Daggaboy Hunting Safaris endorses the practice of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fair chaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in hunting, so although 4x4 vehicles are used in the initial process of locating the game in both areas, all hunts and possible follow-ups are thereafter done on foot. Passion for what he does, and personal attention to every detail of your hunt and stay is what Dawid is known for to which the very high percentage of return hunters to Daggaboy Hunting Safaris is a testimony. So, you might arrive as a client, but you will definitely leave as a friend.

Ekland Safaris South Africa Ekland Safaris is an exclusive property in the heart of South Africa’s Northern Province. Its location alone is enough to bring the dream of hunting alive, housing within its boundaries at least 20 species of mammal including white rhino, cape buffalo, elephant, lion and giraffe, as well as a wide array of antelopes indigenous to the area. However, Ekland Safaris is not simply a hunting delight. Rather, it’s a whole world of sensations spread out across its 35,000 acres: a place that stimulates the senses and proclaims the beauty of the African landscape through its own awakening. The development of a dreamlike camp was inspired not only by the natural beauty that embraces this concept, but also by a clear understanding of the symbiosis between an adventurous spirit and the inclination for comfort and luxury of a group of selected individuals that look for a personal reward in each experience. The estate offers many forms of enjoyment, and can accommodate every individual, hunters and non-hunters alike. It’s a unique experience for the whole family.

Fort Governor’s Estate South Africa The thrill of the chase in the spirit of the colonial safari Hunting as it was in colonial times, that is what awaits you at Fort Governor’s Estate. But this area has a rich hunting history stretching deep into antiquity. The ancient San people traversed this magnificent landscape in order to harvest its rich and abundant game. Their beautiful cave paintings left as an ode to living in harmony with nature. Today this 6,700-hectare huge wild game reserve is an amalgamation of four former estates. In recent years, this mature reserve has been combined to create a perfect natural wilderness, supporting an optimum population of healthy game. An incredible twenty-seven different game species can be hunted at Fort Governor’s Estate, which is also renowned across the globe for its extraordinary population of magnificent Kudu. Four diverse ecosystems and the exceptional variety of plants and trees that make up this highly nourishing environment are a key contributor to the magnificent game population. The plunging valleys are carpeted in pristine Fish River Valley Bushveld, the rolling hills flowing out onto lush grassy plains and the dramatically plunging cliffs provide the ideal habitat for many species. Careful management of the four distinct habitats, and the animals within them, ensures that the Estate remains ecologically exceptional. Sustainability is the key Hunting at Fort Governor´s Estate means sustainable game management and fair chase hunting. You will hunt only for mature, old trophies in the traditional way. This means stalking. You won´t find any hunters shooting

from a truck or just waiting for the game at waterholes. Stalking for the wiliest of old trophy animals in this magnificent landscape is certainly challenging, but you will be rewarded with an extraordinary hunting experience in the traditional African way, and provided with unforgettable impressions of this spectacular landscape and game diversity. Fort Governor´s Estate is home to a population of approximately 2.500 mature, huntable animals, all of which have been produced through natural growth. An epic-hunting safari adventure in the land of the ancient San is an experience that will remain with you forever! Combine a family vacation with a hunting adventure? The perfect destination. Perfectly located near Port Elizabeth and Grahamstown, Fort Governor’s Estate is also a vacation paradise. Within a 40 minute drive you will find the endless beaches of the sunshine coast. Port Alfred, the heart of the Sunshine Coast, boasts an elegant marina, the Port Royal Alfred Gold Club – the oldest in South Africa, modern shopping malls and quaint curio studios. A number of deep-sea diving, fishing, whale and dolphin-watching tour operators can also be found here: The Addo Elephant National Park and the Five-Star Shamwari Game Reserve are also within easy driving distance. Here you can add a ‘Big-Five Experience’ to your safari. Grahamstown with its colonial architecture and Port Elizabeth are rich in historical buildings, monuments and museums. Grahamstown is also an educational hub, being home to the prestigious Rhodes University and excellent private schools.

Hunt & Fish Namibia Namibia Namibia has the largest diversity of biotopes in all of Africa, ranging from deserts such as the Kalahari and the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest, the Namib Desert, to red-coloured dunes (Sossusvlei) and sandy beaches along the Skeleton Coast or then again the subtropical marshes between the Okavango and the Zambezi. Twenty years of experience have taught us that all our guests like to discover all the different parts of this magical country, either by hunting or fishing in the different places. Therefore we offer you two hunting and two fishing destinations which we own or operate. Several combinations are possible, depending on the season, your availability and your mode of transport, all of which we would be more than happy to study together with you. Hunting the grandiose Etosha area and the massive Damaraland The southern border of Etosha National Park is well-known to hunters for its great variety of plains game. Our privately owned land covers a diverse landscape consisting of Mopani forests, dry river beds, acacia woodlands, plains, mountains, valleys and pans. You can hunt exceptional trophies and experience the magic of real hunting. Gold medals can be obtained for gemsbok, kudu and mountain zebra. The Damara dik-dik and the black-faced impala are even exclusive to this area. Leopards and cheetahs are considered the jewels of Etosha.

We have three types of accommodations, each giving you different experiences on your safari. One way is using our African safari lodge with all the five-star amenities typical to the Southern African triangle and with an uninterrupted view of the surrounding valleys and plains. For a more typical hunting atmosphere, we use a camp with several thatched rondawels, decorated with local artwork and en suite bathrooms. For those nostalgic for an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Out of Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; atmosphere, we offer a live version in the tented camp where as the night falls the bush comes alive.

More to the west lies the Damaraland concession. As no fixed settlements are allowed, we use our 4x4 and tents to set up fly-camps in a moonlike environment.

All meals are served around a crackling fire under the clear African sky or under thatch in the central lapa, with unique game dishes. On the day you wish to take a rest from hunting, it is possible to go for a game drive in Etosha National Park or simply relax around the swimming pool and the spa of the main lodge. Affiliations:

Hunt & Fish Namibia Namibia Hunting the Kalahari dunes and Namib Desert South of Windhoek we own two hunting territories, each very representative of their specific biotopes. The Kalahari property features a combination of 74 sequential red sand dunes with the equivalent number of valleys stretching each over a kilometre wide. It is an amazing sensation to hunt in such countryside, as each dune hides a new spectacle of animals grazing in the next valleys. Here you can hunt mostly grazers such as springbok, gemsbok and wildebeest, all medal quality. Again accommodation can be provided in three different types of camps: the luxurious safari lodge with fivestar facilities such as pool, spa and restaurant; the comfortable bungalow of the hunting camp with its magic lapa and boma; or finally, real bush life in a tented camp. A few hours westward, we have our Namib desert property, which again is a totally different view from the Kalahari. Montana-like grass plains contrast with the red hills, which seem imported from Arizona. Hunting tactics change 100%, since here the hunter and the animals have little space to hide. So far our accommodation is in our dune hotel near Sossusvlei, 40 minutes away, from which we organise fly-camps on the property. All game here is natural resident game.

Hunt & Fish Namibia Namibia Fishing the legendary Skeleton Coast Set in the magical town of Henties Baai, on the edge of the Namib Desert, Fisherman’s Guesthouse welcomes fishermen and tourists alike. The lodge is the ultimate destination from which to experience the shore angling adventure of a lifetime. This beautiful lodge offers unforgettable accommodation a mere 200 metres from the beach. Listen to the sea, enjoy fresh air and cool evenings. Experience the different recipes for the catch of the day, accompanied by a glass of local wine. The nine comfortable rooms promise a good night’s sleep before the big fishing day. Renier De Villiers, our professional fisherman, will take you out on an unforgettable angling adventure. The once-in-a-lifetime experience is to catch a bronze copper shark (all the way up to 189 kg) from the sandy beach. You do not need to be an expert though, but let’s just say that the size of your shark will be determined by your patience and wisdom during this fight and not by strength or technique. Once the shark has been hooked, the pro will guide you on how to haul the catch in. If you want to change to edible fish for a day, you can catch big cobs as well as some locals, such as steenbras, galjoen or snoek. For the youngsters, the smaller sharks such as spotted gully shark are a good initiation before tackling the real stuff. Other activities our team performs are desert tours in 4x4, dune races on quads or shopping in Swakopmund and its harbour Walvis Baai.

Fishing the mighty Zambezi and the mysterious Okavango There are different ways to discover the unspoiled beauty of the Caprivi strip, locked-in between the Okavango and Zambezi rivers. They provide the perfect backdrop for some of the most unforgettable fishing experiences imaginable. We elected to build a lodge along the Okavango near Popa Falls. The fishing takes place up- or downstream from the lodge, guided by an experienced fisherman in a small but safe outboard boat. The main attraction is obviously the tigerfish; people travel the world just to fight this prehistoric-looking fish. Other species are different sorts of bream or buddle fish, and the area is also home to two rare fish species: the broadhead catfish and occelated spinyeel. Non-fishing activities include game drives into the Mgango game reserve or Caprivi National Park and boat trips on the river to view hippos and crocodiles. In contrast, the Zambezi has a lot more people living along its shores. A few years ago, we started to charter a houseboat in order to organise our fishing trips onto the river from this base. Experience taught us that the houseboat provided flexibility to move up and downstream, depending on fish density. Our success rate also went up tremendously. Although houseboat life is quite a different experience, all our guests just love it.

Pro Safaris Africa Bulawayo, Zimbabwe The Zambezi Valley is the best big game hunting area in Zimbabwe, if not Africa. Rifa Safari Area is arguably the best area in the Zambezi Valley. Pro Safaris Africa has the exclusive rights to for this magnificent area. With 45 km of Zambezi frontage on the west and north, and safari areas bordering on the east and south, Rifa Safari Area is surrounded by wilderness areas, and is secluded from any human encroachment. Everyone dreams of hunting Africa’s Big Five. Of these, the Cape Buffalo must be the most sought-after trophy of them all. Hunting them by tracking is the only true way to hunt. Hunting Cape Buffalo needs to be incorporated in a true African Safari with its vast areas and wide variety of dangerous game. The area is perhaps best known for its cats. Leopard are abundant and can only be hunted during daylight hours, making this more interesting and giving it the work that it deserves. Two of the top 10 lion ever taken in Africa have been taken in this area, making this the number 1 area for lion in Zimbabwe. Elephant hunting is perhaps the most physical hunt that one can ask for. Elephant is hunted on foot. Whether it’s trophy bulls, which can be anywhere between 40 lbs and 70 lbs per side, or the notorious tuskless elephant that you’re after, Rifa is the safari area that truly has it all!

Hippo are abundant in the Zambezi River and is a unique hunt that takes you away from the everyday tracking of the Cape Buffalo. Keeping in mind that they kill more people in Africa than any other animal, one has to show them the respect they deserve. A hippo hunt should not be done without including its amphibious friend, the Nile Crocodile. This prehistoric creature has to be baited for the best results.

Add an attentive staff and all the elements are in place for travel on the train many consider the most luxurious in the world. Each journey offers two options. One is for wingshooting: driven guinea fowl and francolin, decoyed pigeons, and high-volume dove and waterfowl action. The second option is for plains game: kudu, gemsbok, eland and sable are just a few of the species available. When the time comes to board, a red carpet shows the way and champagne cocktails are served while the luggage is whisked away to your stateroom. Your journey takes you from Pretoria through the bushveldt of the North West province and the diamond fields of the Northern Cape. The first two days are devoted to driven guinea fowl shooting. Typically, eight guns account for 200+ guinea fowl and a few francolin. In addition to the driven days, there are two days of dove and pigeon action. The shooting is in a rich agricultural region near Bloemfontein, where it’s easy to shoot 500 or more rounds in a day.

Algar Safaris Patagonia, Argentina The majestic Red Stag is the most demanded trophy in our area and we are proud to say we offer the unique “Monster” red stags, which roam free and are found in abundance. We also offer Fallow deer, Axis deer, Pere David’s deer (gold medal), Feral Oxen, Mouflon sheep, Somali Ram, Black Jacob’s ram, Patagonian Dall, Patagonian Ram, Multi-horned sheep, Wild goat, Balearean Boc, Puma, Russian Boar and blackbuck antelope. Hunts can be conducted on horseback or 4WD vehicles, depending on the hunters preference, horsemanship and physical ability. Final approach is done on foot. Hunters may expect to stalk around 10-12 km. per day and it implies light hiking on relatively flat terrain. We encourage bow hunters to hunt at Algar as they will find this country vast and open, making it easy to spot game from high vantage points. The hunting field and the hilly terrain is really broken with ravines and streams all around the scene where the animals come down looking for water to drink and pasture the valley which runs about 20 km through the center of the property. The tall grasses and bushes make the perfect camouflage for bow hunters’ activity. Bow hunters can shoot from 30 to 70 meters distance.

Algar Safaris Patagonia, Argentina Although Algar Safaris is very well known as a big game hunting company, we are proud to introduce the best wingshooting programs, which are easy to combine with the finest big game hunting. We offer dove shooting and also the amazing mixed bag shooting (Dove, perdiz & duck hunting) near Gualeguay, in Entre RĂos province, just 240 km. north east from Buenos Aires. The area is composed of hundreds of square miles that come together to form the great Parana River delta (one of the largest ones in South America). The characteristics of this region provide the perfect environment for large quantities of ducks and perdiz. In addition, the lodge is situated on the coast of Gualeguay river, between the marshes and the high fields that are mostly used for crops, where millions of doves can be found. Hunters will experience the world-famous mixed bag: great duck hunting early in the morning, followed by a fantastic perdiz hunt with dogs and the possibility to shoot as many doves as they want in the afternoon or just shooting doves all day long. This unique opportunity to hunt 3 species during the same hunting day; every day, is fantastic. Finally, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to mention that Algar Safaris has been supporting many important hunting associations across the U.S. and the world, in order to contribute to protect the freedom to hunt and promote wildlife conservation programs worldwide.

Afternoon begins at around 2 or 2.30, and continues until 5 or 6 when you will return to the lodge for cocktails at the wine cellar and an early dinner. We ensure one freshly built blind for each hunter. Decoys are strategically deployed around the blinds and at a suitable distance.

Wild pigeons are large and fast, which makes calculating speed a little bit deceptive. Staying hidden and still in a good blind is the key to success.

Veracruz Lodge Santa Fe, Argentina Mixed bag hunting Veracruz is a cosy, thatched-roofed lodge with the most spectacular view, which makes a wonderful setting to spare and relax after enjoying the best shooting ever. The lodge offers 5 bedrooms with private bathrooms, and can accommodate 10 guests. While you are at the ranch, it is yours to enjoy, from the comfortable living room with its inviting fireplace, to the dining room offering beautiful views of open fields and the Parana River shore. The Shooting At Veracruz you can hunt different species of ducks depending on the time of the year, the rosy billed and whistling ducks being the most common, along with some teals. Duck shooting features comfortable and well camouflaged blinds; quality specie-specific decoys and guides who will place you where you need to be to get the kind of duck hunting youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve only dreamed of until now. The shooting occurs on the shores of San Javier Rivers, over some of the hundreds of islands or over rice fields. We shoot twice a day, morning and evening, and there is plenty of time to relax at midday. For morning hunts, our hunters depart from the lodge in the dark, but after a hearty breakfast.

Argentina

Owner: Tomas Frontera Manager: Vincent Levannier

Depending on the time of the year and the behavior of the birds (scouted every day), the time to get to the blinds will be from 20 minutes to an hour, including car or boat ride. Shooting over decoys starts at first light and continues until 10 am or after. Flocks of 20 or 30 ducks are not rare. Most days, duck hunters return to the lodge for lunch and a siesta before afternoon departure at about 3pm for evening duck hunts. Evening hunts last until dark. Perdiz over dogs is a great choice to hunt. They are fast and challenging. Britainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or German shorthair dogs hunt with us. Duck and perdiz shooting can be exchanged for Dove shooting, making the hunting diverse. Dorado Fishing is a great and fun sport. The river scenery is phenomenal. We fish in shallow water with current. Lots of different fish can be caught like stingray and Piranhas. We will use bait or fly rods depending on your request. Catch and release is what we do.

Bettws Hall United Kingdom Bettws Hall World Wide was founded by Gwyn and Ann Evans in 1988, and has established a reputation at the forefront of pheasant and partridge shooting in the UK with many of the estates frequently achieving high rankings in various shooting polls. Over the past 27 years, all of our estates have grown in stature and popularity and it is for this reason that we have a loyal list of guests who return year after year. Eight first class estates are spread across Mid Wales and the English border, as well as the West Country. Due to the natural topography that these regions provide, combined with expertise and experience in the field, we offer the finest high driven shooting on some of the most picturesque estates the UK has to offer.

Owner: Gwyn & Ann Evans

We pride ourselves on first class hospitality worthy of the sport we present, and can offer our purpose built sporting lodges with 21 double En Suite bedrooms. Wi-Fi, sauna and a Jacuzzi along with massage treatments are a must after a dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shooting at one of our premier estates.

Bettws Hall United Kingdom Brigands The Brigands has been in the Bettws Hall portfolio for 12 years and has firmly established itself as one of the highest pheasant shoots in the UK. It is located in the Dovey Valley on the edge of Snowdonia National Park and it is this natural topography that lends itself to presenting pheasants at the pinnacle of what is deemed reachable with a shotgun. The Brigands regularly finds itself in the Top 10 shoots in the UK and once you have experienced the shooting, you will see why. Many of the best shots from around the world make the pilgrimage to The Brigands on an annual basis to test themselves on pheasants that are purposefully presented at heights that are sure to test even the most experienced gun. The birds themselves are driven from a mix of traditional wooded valleys as well as the vast, heather cladded Cambrian Mountain sides that rise high amongst this rugged Welsh terrain.

Owner: Gwyn & Ann Evans

The Brigands is home to the legendary drive ‘720’ – so named after the waterfall that cascades off the mountain 720 feet above where you stand in the wooded valley awaiting the pheasants that break off the waterfall. A new addition to the repertoire for the 2014 season is ‘Tommies’ drive which will undoubtedly establish itself as one of the elite pheasant drives in the UK based on height and landscape alone! Superior accommodation at the Brigands Inn and first class hospitality are all part of the experience.

Bettws Hall United Kingdom Vaynor Park Vaynor Park is a traditional parkland shoot set in Montgomeryshire in Mid Wales. Home to the Corbett-Winder family for generations, William Corbett-Winder can still be found out hosting days on this truly stunning estate. Vaynor Park utilises natural Welsh rolling valleys to offer high pheasant and partridge driven from mature oak woodland to anticipating guns standing in open pasture. A typical day will begin with the guns enjoying a leisurely breakfast in our sporting lodges and discussing the excitement of the day ahead. The team will then assemble in the courtyard and begin the very short drive to the Vaynor estate where tea and coffee will be served in the converted tack room. It is here that pegs will be drawn and the order of the day will be revealed before proceeding to the morning drives.

Owner: Gwyn & Ann Evans

As with all of our estates, hospitality matches the sport, so Champagne and canapé ‘elevenses’ precede a wonderful home cooked lunch back at the lodge before the afternoon sport commences. With signature drives such as ‘Hanging Wood’ presenting a steady flow of high, climbing pheasants and partridge exploding in singles and huge coveys alike – the shooting is constant from the first horn to signal the start of the drive, right until the very end. New drives are added on a regular basis and ‘Coed Tafol’ is already establishing itself as one of the finest drives on the estate in only its first year.

KEMPTON

MAESMAWR HALL

GREGYNOG HALL

104

Kempton is the Dumbell family home and sits either side of the English and Welsh border in the ‘Viagra’ valley. This shoot frequently resides in the UK’s top shoot polls. An Iron Age barrow elevates itself from the Shropshire hills and is the backdrop to some incredibly challenging pheasant and partridge on drives such as ‘Keepers’ and ‘The Oaks.’ The estate stands high upon the barrow and allows views across both Welsh and English countryside which are sure to take your breath away. First class hospitality throughout the day will ensure that your sporting day is complete. Maesmawr Hall is a 19th Century estate that was originally laid out as a hunting retreat and is now the home of the Trant family. The hall itself is architecturally majestic and would not look out of place in the Bordeaux region of Southern France! Drives such as ‘Forest Lodge’ and ‘Llanfair Wood’ present tall pheasants driven from game crop and a mixture of deciduous and coniferous woodland towards guns that are located in deep valleys to ensure birds reach the line at high altitude. Maesmawr is a traditional shoot steeped in history and offering some of Wales’ finest pheasant shooting.

United Kingdom

Owner: Gwyn & Ann Evans

Gregynog Hall is an imposing Grade 1 listed Jacobean building that has sat on the same site for over 800 years. The shoot is located just a stone’s throw away from Bettws Hall sporting lodges so is ideally located for access to and from breakfast and lunch by the log fire. The shoot itself utilises a long, deep valley with steep sides to present high and fast pheasants all in the shadows of the hall itself. With the aptly named ‘Middle’ along with ‘Ivors’ – it is understandable as to why this intimate shoot has a loyal following of returning guests year after year who are keen for their secret not to be revealed.

Bettws Hall United Kingdom West Country Estates Chargot lies in the heart of Somerset on the edge of the Exmoor National park. The shoot itself has forged a reputation as one of the most iconic high bird shoots in the UK, due largely in part to the deep valleys and undulating hills that present truly challenging shooting regardless of your experience. A scenic shooting lodge plays host to some wonderful lunches to re-create the morning’s excitement and to anticipate the afternoon’s adventures where it is likely you will be shooting drives such as ‘Fat Hen’ or ‘Spitfire’ – the latter of which should be a good indication as to the speed and height of the pheasants!

Molland has been family home to the Throckmorton’s for over 800 years and lies in the depths of shooting country in Devon. All aspects of bio-diversity can be found here – woodland, moorland and wetland.

West Molland is home to one of the most famous drives in the UK - ‘The Wood’ - where pheasants are flushed from distant cover crop and then gain altitude over mature oak and coniferous woodland where they are hidden from the gun line until the very last minute before exploding high above the line of guns standing deep in the valley. This needs to be seen to be believed.

Bettws Hall United Kingdom Grouse Shooting The UK is famous for its plethora of sporting opportunities. None are more prized than the opportunity to shoot the iconic grouse on the moors of Northern England or Scotland. Grouse are unique to the British Isles and are an entirely wild species which makes them a highly sought after specimen. We are able to source grouse shooting on some of the finest moors in the North of England and Scotland to ensure that you don’t miss out on this magnificent opportunity. The season begins on the ‘Glorious 12th’ of August when it is likely that you will be shooting in short sleeves and sunglasses, and runs through until early December when the British weather calls for a slightly more robust approach to staying warm and dry. No matter when you decide to book your sporting trip of a lifetime, the combination of the grouse and our meticulous attention to detail will ensure that this becomes an annual expedition not to be missed.

Château Saint Michel France Experienced hunters usually need to go far to hunt big deer. This is often a long and troublesome trip, and sometimes accommodations are rough. As of this year, a new destination in France has opened, offering some of the biggest and most beautiful deer. The Saint Michel property, in the Nièvre department, located between Beaune and Saint-Honoré-les-Bains, will welcome you to its magnificent park. You will stay in a fully renovated castle with all the comfort of a five-star hotel. Everything is done to perfection, be it the rooms or the meals. The owner Antoine Feidt, himself a very experienced hunter who has travelled the world, will personally welcome you and make it possible for you to shoot one of his exceptional deer. The deer are originally from Germany, and they were imported to France 10 years ago. They have been pampered and well taken care of in order to make this livestock so amazing today. They have been treated naturally and kept in the wild. Many stags have 30 points or more and go up to gold medals. For the first time, Antoine Feidt is opening this exceptional domain where he will, I am sure, prove the beauty and the quality of his deer. You will either hunt game from a hide on watchtowers or by stalking. The best calibres for hunting here are .300 Winchester, 9.3 x 62, etc..... A French hunting permit or license is mandatory. You will be hunting with the owner, who will gladly explain the evolution of his livestock and his theories on genetics. So take advantage of this unique opportunity to discover these unique deer, and should you shoot one of them, it will most certainly become one of the most admired pieces in your trophy room.

“When they say that first impressions last then we can say that this experience was achieved at Laplanque”; “exceptional trophies”; “a home away from home”; “their hospitality is unparalleled”; “what a wonderful team”; “incredible family Château with beautiful interiors and exteriors”; “a very fair chase hunt”. These are just a few examples of our favourite extracts from the Laplanque hunting estate’s visitors’ book, written by hunters who have stayed with us and left entirely satisfied. The Laplanque Hunting Estate is located in the south of France (an hour and a half from Toulouse Blagnac airport) at an altitude of 600 meters (1,950 feet) in a magnificent, unspoiled rural region rich in traditions, gastronomy and surrounded by charming villages that we are delighted to help our guests discover. Château de Laplanque has been in the Roques family since the 13th century and has been lovingly maintained ever since. The Château offers many comfortable reception rooms and bedrooms filled with original furnishings, all in a pleasant homelike environment. The fully fenced 350-hectare (860-acre) estate has always been dedicated to hunting. The terrain is rough, the environment wild and the biotope highly varied. Our grassland areas alternate pine, chestnut and holly with birch forests and heather-covered cliffs which all combine to make for difficult and exciting hunting.

MOOSE HUNTING, THE TRADITIONAL WAY Our most exclusive hunting product is one-on-one hunting with a barking moose dog. You and a tracker/dog handler hunt alone over large areas, waiting for the dog to find the moose. When the dog “holds” the moose through its rhythmic barking, we start our cautious approach on an extremely watchful moose. There are few hunting methods that bring about such a rush of adrenaline. This package also includes “calling for moose” in the dawn to increase your chances of shooting the “big bull”. We also offer driven hunts for moose. We hunt using experienced trackers/dog handlers. Depending on the wind and weather, we can choose whether to hunt with the dogs leashed or unleashed. All drives are conducted in beautiful open mountain terrain. GAME BIRD HUNTING We offer ptarmigan hunts using pointing bird dogs. Hunting takes place on the open mountainsides or in the forests of mountain birch. This hunting method necessitates a great deal of walking in the mountains, but the breathtaking surroundings mean you soon forget that you are also getting a little bit of exercise. Ptarmigan hunting is very sociable, as you have time to chat during the day; it is only in bird situations that discipline and a cool head are necessary. All of our hunts require that you are used to spending time in the outdoors and that you are physically prepared for long walks and long days in the mountains.

This type of hunting includes drives for deer, wild boar, fallow deer and mouflon and is unique thanks to its color, beauty and excitement with large parties of hunters, hounds and mounts. Our driven hunts or “monterias” are world-class. They usually feature 5 to 25 stands offering 2 to 3 trophies per person per day.

Great Spanish Hunts Spain The red-legged partridge (Alectoris Rufa) is a Gallinaceous fowl endemic to Spain considered the most sporting and challenging bird in the world by hunters due to its beauty, audacity and fast and erratic flight. The driven partridge shoot is a shooting style with a long and deeply rooted tradition in Spain, which allows the hunter to enjoy the red-legged partridge in a far more challenging way, since the speed and height reached are unbeatable, putting more than one expert wing shooter to the test. Our shoots are some of the best and most famous in the country. Groups of 3 to 10 guns usually bag around 1,000 birds per day or even double that amount depending on their shooting skills. Thanks to the wide range of estates we manage and their diverse and beautiful landscapes we are able to offer some of the most spectacular and challenging drives to be found in Spain. Featuring birds with fast and erratic flight, both low and high flying, we can offer drives that allow hunters to enjoy very varied and challenging shoots. A pair of 12 and 20 bore double-barrel matched shot guns is ideal for this type of shoot. We work closely with top gun manufacturers to offer you the best quality guns on-site, therefore avoiding the inconvenience of travelling with them.

Scandinavian Prohunters Sweden Scandinavian Prohunters is arranging hunts throughout Sweden for a variety of species. We are proud to say we have access to the best, professionally managed areas. Sweden is a large country with a huge diversity of game, offering great hunting as well as beautiful scenery. In the soft agricultural country of southern Sweden we offer hunts for Roebuck, Moose, Red deer, Fallow deer, Wild boar, Mouflon and a few license on European Bison. These hunts also feature great accommodations, making it a perfect hunting holiday. For those that prefer the wilderness and a more rugged hunt, we can arrange a hunt in northern Sweden for Moose and Capercaille. In our neighboring country of Norway we offer hunts for European Rein deer and in Denmark Red deer, Fallow deer and Sika deer. There is a great variety of species that can be combined, so the choice is yours. Sweden is rich in history, great sightseeing, and of course, wonderful shopping for the non-hunters. The hunting, sightseeing, and shopping opportunities all feature great accommodations, which can even be upgraded to a Castle, or old Manor houses. Most couples choose to stay after the hunt to explore the country on their own. The infrastructure of Sweden is first class, and crime is virtually non-existent---AND, everyone speaks English, making it much easier to travel. Moose Hunting Sneaking up on a moose the hunting dogs have cornered is one of the most exciting hunting experiences you will ever have. No matter what or where you have hunted in the world, your pulse will spike when you close in on a moose. You must go into the wind as quietly as possible, and always know where the dog is. You must also quickly determine if any animals are slipping away from the area. This type of hunting puts your hunting skills to the test, and it is important to keep all your senses on high alert in order to make quick decisions. This is a hunt for people who appreciate a true “Fair Chase” hunt. You can choose to hunt one-on-one, or hunt in a group.

Roebuck Stalking It is no accident that Swedish roebuck are classified as the most beautiful buck in the world. Tall, slender, and symmetric, they will provide you with an awesome trophy that will most certainly find a prominent spot in your home. A Roebuck trophy will not only give you memories of a great hunt, but will also provide a lifetime of memories of Sweden at its finest. Roebuck season is the time of year when the climate in Sweden is at its best. As we say in Sweden, it is warm enough, but still a good idea to pack an extra sweater for early morning and late evening. We have the best areas that are situated in the Southern part of Sweden in Skane. Reindeer in Norway In the Norwegian highlands we are hunting the majestic Reindeer. Combining a beautiful trophy in fantastic landscape accommodated in charming cottages in the highland makes this a favorite.

Soto Real Andalucia, Spain Spain has always had a peculiar attraction for hunters. It of course has two very unique ways of hunting namely the “ojeo” driven partridge and the “monteria” driven big game. Andalucia has long been the el dorado of partridge shooters, providing some of the world’s finest shooting, in breathtaking scenery of hills and valleys. In contrast with the more northern hunting areas, Seville boasts a reputation of ever sunny skies and mild temperatures the whole hunting season long. Taking the sun at his post, with these “Spanish grouses” all around you is a pleasure for any hunter. The informal yet traditional atmosphere, punctuated by the convivial Spanish hospitality, makes these outings a daylong fiesta. Put Soto Real, the exclusive hunting resort and retreat in these surroundings and a Magic Safari Lodge is born. But, what really triggers everyone’s imagination is that you can walk around in short sleeves in winter, enjoying your days out hunting while friends or associates back home are shivering in the cold. Your only thought then is: “this is magic”.

152

Spain

Owner: Classified Manager: Guy van Onsem

Nature around Soto Real could not be more tempting! A true sportsman will appreciate the swift flight of the red-legged partridges driven from the hills by the majestic Andalusian horses over an armada of a dozen pair gunned shooters. Spain is rated as one of Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last hunting paradises and the abundant nature of Soto Real offers most exciting opportunities for the shooting sportsman. The 5.000 acre shooting grounds are bordered on one side by the delta of the Guadalquivir and on the other by the Sierra Grazalema. Red-legged partridges are amongst the most challenging birds in Europe and our driven partridge shoots are an absolute delight! The mild Spanish climate almost always guarantees clear blue skies and warming sun. The breathtaking views of the Andalusian countryside and the beauty of the typical red partridge make the picture complete. Season starts early October to end only mid March

Soto Real Andalucia, Spain Wonderful outdoor cocktails, lunches prepared in the countryside by our chef and a beautiful presentation of the bag of the day will contribute to make your stay at Soto Real an unforgettable synergetic experience. Depending on the time of year, Soto Real offers many other shooting possibilities. From July till the end of September, quail and rabbits walk up shooting over dogs is organized for small groups. During the normal hunting season, hares and partridges can further fill up your bag and towards the end of the season flights of thrush represent a particular attraction. The main cortijo has this very special feel of a wonderful country house. Each room designed and decorated in a delightful blend of traditional Andalusian and old Moresque style, has an en suite luxury bathroom, intimate salon and private terrace. Soto Real does not attempt to present an image or make a statement. The aim is to provide guests with quiet comfort and discreet service, which will enable them to relax and draw from surroundings and to restore the senses that modern life tends to crush. The perception of luxury also has a touch of elegance: decoration is luxurious yet without ostentation, fantasy in all sobriety giving total tranquility.

Owner: Classified Manager: Guy van Onsem

Soto Real is also perfect for couples and families, for a long weekend or a short week. It is within easy driving distance of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, the towns of Jerez, Sevilla and Cordoba and the surrounding white villages - all available as chauffeur-driven excursions. In the cortijo itself there are opportunities for horse and carriage riding, fitness, sauna, as well as a beautycenter, tennis and clay shooting, all organized by professional staff. Big game also abounds in the forested hills with species such as the red- and fallow deer, roe, mouflon and not forgetting the much-coveted wild boar. Hunting them in Monteria style, driven by dogs â&#x20AC;&#x153;podencos and mastinesâ&#x20AC;?, holds the greatest fascination for anyone, given both the skills and the ancient rites involved. Stalking the Spanish Ibex is a challenge for the fittest as the mountains around Ronda can take their toll.

They are both extremely keen young hunters and have hunted extensively throughout Turkey and abroad. The Ekenler family has been landowners in Tarsus, Cukurova area for more than 300 years. Hunting is a family tradition, proudly passed from father to son and finally to us. We have always had a passion for the wild; This has been supported by their father who took Temir and Kürşat with him to many hunts all over the world. With some of the world’s finest species on our doorstep, we have naturally concentrated on big game hunting. WildHunting offers a total of 6 speacies of big game, which are natively found only on Turkish hunting land, this makes the hunting unique! 1) Anatolian Bezoar Ibex 2) Anatolian Konya Sheep 3) Anatolian Chamois 4) Anatolian Red Deer 5) Anatolian Urfa Gazelle 6) Anatolian Wild Boar Our family has controlled the shooting in large areas of the Taurus Mountains for generations. We therefore operate as a private family hunting estate, rather than an agent buying from different concessions all over the region. As a result, we have controlled, conserved and developed our areas in a manner that we believe to be unique in the whole country. This approach is key to our way of maintaining the highest standards in everything we do. Anatolian Bezoar Ibex: is a very popular big game of our mountains and has a very special reputation amongst hunters from around the World and a very challenging and special hunt for us. We have managed to

We have averaged 44’’(110cm) over the past hunting years and harvest more than a few trophies between 48’’ – 52’’(120-130cm). We have also been living this dream of ethical, sporting hunting, conserving both the game and our wonderful natural environment, for ourselves, our clients and our guests, now and in the future. Anatolian Wild Boar: is the most common big game and a very exciting hunt for our hunting guests; since Turkey produces the biggest boars in the World with body size exceeding 200-250kg and tusks measuring between 24-30cm. We have been organizing and carrying out hunts for our guests, with a very experienced and trained team for over 20 years.

Australian Buffalo Hunters Australia Australian Buffalo Hunters – Classic Safaris Australia’s No1 Buffalo Hunting: Every year hunters say this is awesome, some say the world’s best kept secret... You will charter from the tropical city of Darwin, flying over Mango orchards, Cattle ranches, then famous Kakadu national park, all of a sudden you see the massive Arnhem Land escarpment, rough valleys, bush and rock hills that settle down to become the wilds of Aboriginal owned Central Arnhem Land. After an hour over wilderness and winding rivers, you will land at Bulman airstrip. Your PH will meet you and transit on rough tracks to our old style tented safari camp, seeing Buffalo on the way, then unpack, check rifles and begin your adventure. Buffalo Paradise: Thats how most hunters describe it. Here you can hunt on foot and see up to a hundred Water Buffalo each day, sometimes many more. These numbers give you the opportunity to pass up good trophies until you get an exceptional one, plus many hunters shoot 2 excellent trophy Buffalo, and a couple of broken old Dugga boys. This season many hunters used double rifles in 450/400, 450, 470, 500 and 577, so plenty of action and close encounters. Dangerous Game At Its Best: I have stopped 9 charges, these water buffalo have unbelievable strength and power. Last year a hunter stopped a charge when following up a wounded bull, another bull was protecting it and charged over the ridge, his 416 Rigby solid went through the nose into the brain and saved them. I also saw a wide old bull charge a large wounded Bull and smash him 3 times and broke its back… recently 2 supposedly dead bulls have tried to get up. Only a perfect brain or upper spine shot will be effective, even save your life.

White-tailed Deer: This beautiful animal is the most sought after and elusive trophy in North America. Hartland offers hunters an opportunity to harvest world record North-Western Whitetails. Average scores continue to increase each year. The most common trophy size is over 220 SCI, while several trophies each year are over 300 SCI and the odd one scores an amazing 400+.

Rocky Mountain Elk: You can IMAGINE? Silently / stealthily winding your way through thick woods on a cool fall morning. The still air is suddenly pierced by shrill bugle of a massive six by six bull as you feel a spine-tinging shiver ascend to your neck. All your senses are heightened and you hear branches breaking as a monster crashes his way through the woods to a clearing 200 yards in front of you. Adrenaline takes over and with heart pounding you raise your rifle… Hartland is committed to providing this type of experience as you pursue massive bulls that may score over 500* SCI. Mule Deer: Hartland has a limited number of mule deer, generally scoring 180-240 with a very few exceptional trophies in the 260-300* category. Caribou: Hartland offers the Alaskan Barren Ground species of Caribou. Although the trophy quality is excellent, our numbers are limited. Sheep: Rocky mountain Big Horn sheep, desert Big Horn sheep, Dall sheep, stone sheep. Call for availability and pricing. Buffalo: (Plains Bison) Hunters make take young bulls (a good representative of the species) of the massive older bulls.

Vancouver Island Hunts Canada

Spring and Fall Hunts on Vancouver Island: Spot-and-stalk hunts for Black Bear and Roosevelt Elk Our 7800 square kilometer exclusive hunting territory is located along the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island. The area has over 50 grizzly-free salmon river valleys where the Black Bear feed in the Fall. The Black Bear hunting here is unsurpassed due to superior genetics and the densest populations of Black Bear per square kilometer of anywhere in North America. There are no other locations that have better success rates, sizes or ages of bears harvested. Vancouver Island is also well-known as the premier destination for pure Roosevelt Elk. We consistently produce record book bulls. We also offer Coastal Wolf as an add-on animal for a trophy fee on early Spring Black bear hunts, as well as Sitka Deer on the Fall hunts. A second Black Bear may be taken on a trophy fee basis. We limit the number of hunters we book to ensure that every hunter has the best possible hunting experience. On the Spring Black Bear hunts we prefer to book just two hunters per hunt date who will take two bears each, but we will take a maximum of four hunters per hunt date if requested. In the Fall we only take one or two hunters per hunt date. Roosevelt Elk hunts are limited to two hunters per season.

Canada

Owner & Manager : Lorna and Eric Mikkelson

We use a combination of custom-designed boats and quads to access the many beaches and logging roads within our guide territory. Camp accommodations may be provided in either our live-aboard boat or a rustic log cabin lodge, or some combination of both, depending on where we are hunting. It is this combination of excellent equipment, comfortable camps, superior animals and professional services that enables us to maximize our hunters’ opportunities while providing a true wilderness hunting experience. Seasons: 5 day 1:1 hunts for Spring Black Bear, Coastal Wolf - April 1- May 20 10 day 1:1 hunts for Roosevelt Elk, Sitka Deer - October 10 - 20 5 day 1:1 hunts for Fall Black Bear, Sitka Deer - October 21- November 5 To Get Here: Clients fly into Vancouver International the day before the hunt starts and then take a 30 minute commuter flight over to Comox Airport on Vancouver Island. We pick clients up at Comox Airport and take them to a hotel for the night. The next morning we drive them to the hunting area on the west coast of the Island to begin the hunt. Alternatively, clients may choose to rent a vehicle at Vancouver International and take the ferry service across to Vancouver Island.

Impatient ? Buy your cask share! HOW DOES IT WORKS? You choose a share from a cask. You decide to let it mature for 3 or 5 years. We provide it to you at 46% alcohol by vol. or at cask strength (+/- 70% alcohol by vol.).

HAVE YOU DECIDED? Your share corresponds to either 6 or 12 bottles. You receive a certificate of authenticity that you can exchange at the distillery as from October 2016 if you chose for a 3 years old or starting from October 2018 if you chose for a 5 years old!

ARE THE CASK SHARES SO SPECIAL? Yes, the Belgian Owl is a 100% Belgian Single Malt whisky. The water is drawn from the ground water of Hesbaye, a rich subsoil that has for centuries already allowed for the creation of rich and pure water. The barley is grown by Belgian farmers involved in fair trade and reasoned agriculture. Moreover, the used stills derive from the legendary Scottish ex-distillery of Caperdonich.
